Carrier detector 15 comprises: delay element 7, complex divider 9, phase difference distribution calculator 11 and identifying unit 13.
Delay element 7 receives the serial complex datas and with its period that postpones expection, exports the complex data that this has postponed then.The complex data that complex divider 9 receives the serial complex datas and postponed, and two data that receive are divided by, the output complex data of being divided by again.The complex data that phase difference distribution calculator 11 will be divided by is assigned in four quadrants of cartesian coordinate, and calculates the number of the data in each quadrant that is present in cartesian coordinate.Then, phase difference distribution calculator 11 is selected the maximum number of data in one of four quadrants, and exports the maximum number of these data.Identifying unit 13 is relatively by phase difference distribution calculator 11 data that receive and the threshold value that is retained in the identifying unit 13, and the output result of determination.
The operation of the receiving equipment 1000 with such configuration is described now with reference to Fig. 2 and 3.Suppose that the data that send from receiving equipment 1000 outsides are known and equal " 1 ".In addition, in the present embodiment, suppose and to be input to by the composite wave that sine wave produces in the receiving equipment that wherein, this sine wave has the frequency shown in the heavy line among Fig. 2 (f1, f2 and f3), and its phase place is respectively Φ 1, Φ 2 and Φ 3.At this moment, in the scope of Π, each sine wave is all at one arbitrarily among the phase place " Φ n " (n=1,2 or 3) at-Π.
At first, in ripple test section 17, carry out wavelet transform with the data that 1 pair of wavelet transform device receives.Then, M subcarrier of wavelet transform device 1 output (being numbered 0 to M-1 of subcarrier).Then, except subcarrier #0 and subcarrier # (M-1), all subcarriers are input in the complex data generator 3.At this moment, from (2n-1) of wavelet transform device 1 individual and 2n subcarrier (1≤n≤M/2-1) is respectively cos that Fig. 2 medium frequency is the sine wave of fn (Φ n) and sin (Φ n).Complex data generator 3 produces compound number of sub certificate, and these data comprise real part branch that is made of cos (Φ n) and the dummy data part that is made of sin (Φ n), and this compound number of sub certificate is outputed in the P/S transducer 5.Then, P/S transducer 5 receives from the subcarrier #0 of wavelet transform device 1 and subcarrier # (M-1) and from the compound number of sub certificate of complex data generator 3 with parallel mode.Then, P/S transducer 5 is converted to serial data from the top of Fig. 1 with parallel data.Then, P/S transducer 5 from the ripple test section 17 output these serial complex datas.

(the 7th embodiment)
In Figure 15, receiving equipment 1000 comprises: automatic gain control circuit 151 (below be referred to as AGC151), A/D converter 153 (below be referred to as A/D converter 153), 155, symbol synchronisation circuit 157 and level identifying unit 159.Carrier detector described in embodiment 1 to 6 and any configuration of symbol synchronisation circuit can be used separately as carrier detector 155 and symbol synchronisation circuit 157.Level identifying unit 159 compares the gain level and the threshold value that is stored in the identifying unit 159 from the data of AGC151.If gain level is lower than threshold value, level identifying unit 159 is just to carrier detector 155 and symbol synchronisation circuit 157 outputs " connection (on) " information.If gain level is not less than threshold value, level identifying unit 159 is just to carrier detector 155 and symbol synchronisation circuit 157 outputs " shutoff (off) " information.
The operation of the receiving equipment 1000 with such configuration is described with reference to Figure 15 below.
If there are not the data of expection in the data that receive, just the gain of AGC151 is set to maximum gain.If in the data that receive, there are the data of expection, the gain of AGC151 just is set according to the level of the data that receive.If there are the data of expection, just the gain of AGC151 is set to less than maximum.
The gain level of level identifying unit 159 compare thresholds and AGC151.If gain level is higher than threshold value, the level identifying unit is just to carrier detector 155 output " shutoff " information, and symbol synchronisation circuit 157 is not worked.If gain level is lower than threshold value, level identifying unit 159 is just to carrier detector 155 and symbol synchronisation circuit 157 output " connection " information.
To carrier detector 155 and symbol synchronisation circuit 157 input " connection " information the time, carrier detector 155 and symbol synchronisation circuit 157 just come into operation, with detected carrier respectively and make symbol synchronization.To carrier detector 155 and symbol synchronisation circuit 157 input " shutoff " information the time, the running that carrier detector 155 and symbol synchronisation circuit 157 just stop to carry out detected carrier respectively and make symbol synchronization.

If data at first have a waveform as shown in figure 17, receiving equipment 1000 just receives the waveform data that has as shown in figure 18.According to data the threshold value that carrier wave detects is set with amplitude spectrum as shown in figure 17.Specifically, the quantity of the phase difference that will find among the subcarrier that is used to communicate by letter is decided to be sum, and threshold value is set to 70% (being defined as " A ") of sum.Under the situation about flattening at waveform top as shown in figure 18, can not carry out carrier wave according to threshold value and detect, even the CNR (ratio of noise power and carrier power) of that a part of amplitude spectrum that does not flatten at the top also is like this in being under the good state.
Therefore, in order to address this problem, used carrier detector 801 in the present embodiment.The phase difference that carrier detector 801 calculates between each adjacent subcarrier, and calculate the quantity (complex data) that its value is lower than the phase difference of certain threshold level.At this, this quantity is defined as " B ".
In this embodiment, state utilization " A " and " B " according to transmission line is provided with threshold value.For example, in the 3rd embodiment, threshold value is set to (A-0.5*B) * and o.7 (is called " formula 1 ").Because this threshold value is to be provided with according to the state of transmission line, therefore can improve the accuracy that carrier wave detects.
If come detected carrier with above-mentioned method in carrier detector 801, carrier detector 801 sends detection information to symbol synchronisation circuit 77.Symbol synchronisation circuit 77 is carried out symbol synchronization according to detecting information operating, and produces synchronizing information.This synchronizing information is fed to ripple test section 17.
In addition, in this embodiment, although be used as an example of calculated threshold with the method for the 3rd embodiment,, in other embodiments or change at state under the situation of " A " and " B ", also can come calculated threshold by enough method for distinguishing according to each transmission line.This configuration makes and may improve the accuracy that the carrier wave under other nearly all situation detects.In addition, this configuration also can be used for using other communication means of cable, for example, and in telephone wire or the coaxial wire that is pre-existing in.Under the situation of using this configuration, in these communication meanss, almost can reach identical effect.

As mentioned above, if the lead-out wire that branch line and/or plug arranged in the power line does not link to each other with any other equipment, because impedance does not match, in power line impedance and reflection will appear.Therefore, the transmission line in PLC is usually all under the outofkilter.
Particularly, can become a problem among the PLC, and cause the defective mode of transmission line from the interference of other system that is pre-existing in of like radio amateur's radio wave and shortwave broadcasting and so on.Complex data is used among carrier detector 801 shown in the 4th embodiment and the symbol synchronisation circuit 77.By using complex data, if having from the interference and the interference level of another system higherly in PLC, the result of calculation in carrier detector 801 and symbol synchronisation circuit 77 just has big error margin.This big error margin may produce harmful effect to PLC.In order to reduce this big error margin, receiving equipment 1000 in the present embodiment comprises selector 500.Selector 500 by the subcarrier removing average level with complex data big-difference arranged very much from by the data of selecting expection the complex data of ripple test section 17 outputs.Having very with the average level of complex data, the subcarrier of big-difference more may be the disturbing wave with high level.The average level of deriving complex data is so that average to the level of all subcarriers.In the present embodiment, if with the difference of average level greater than 12db, just in selector 500, remove this subcarrier.Subcarrier is not sent among carrier detector 801 and the symbol synchronisation circuit 77.The feasible accuracy that may improve carrier detector 801 and symbol synchronisation circuit 77 of this configuration.
In addition, can be according to certain situation, for example, the accuracy of the situation of transmission line or carrier detector 801 and symbol synchronisation circuit 77 changes the threshold value (12db) of 12db.
In addition, (in frame) carries out above-mentioned operation in the data block of exchanges data if be wherein to carry out, and selector 500 just can detect the narrow band interference that whether has the high 12db of its level ratio average level.Yet, be difficult to detect whether have a narrow band interference that has with the average level same level.Exist the narrow band interference that has with the average level same level to cause harmful effect to PLC.In order to reduce this harmful effect, be preferably in the non-data block (between frame, or in the space between frame) operate.As shown in figure 20, each frame among frame " A ", " B " and " C " all comprises leading part and data division.Between adjacent frame, the space is arranged, to prevent the overlapping of consecutive frame.When detected carrier, can recall and detect this space.The feasible accuracy in detection that may improve ever-present narrow band interference of this configuration.As a result, when using the complex data of exporting by the ripple test section to carry out the carrier wave detection and making symbol synchronization, can improve the disposal ability of receiving equipment 1000.
